A STRONG BASELINE FOR VEHICLE RE-IDENTIFICATION
This paper is accepted to the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshop(CVPRW) 2021
This repo is the official implementation for the paper A Strong Baseline For Vehicle Re-Identification in Track 2, 2021 AI CITY CHALLENGE.
I.INTRODUCTION
Our proposed method sheds light on three main factors that contribute most to the performance, including:
- Minizing the gap between real and synthetic data
- Network modification by stacking multi heads with attention mechanism to backbone
- Adaptive loss weight adjustment.
Our method achieves 61.34% mAP on the private CityFlow testset without using external dataset or pseudo labeling, and outperforms all previous works at 87.1% mAP on the Veri benchmark.
II. INSTALLATION
